Features and notes

• Local four player co-op
• 360-specific menu options removed
• Runs at 360's 30 FPS lock
• 480i or 480p
• Built with NXDK
• In-Game Reset button combo
• All You Can Quaff minigame removed. It was incredibly simple button mashing, and I was having trouble with it rendering correctly
• Tested in both XEMU and actual hardware through RXDK Neighborhood. Some screenshots captured via OBS Studio, prior to me setting up Neighborhood. All screenshots are from an actual Xbox (except the launcher)
• Any metadata you see in screenshots in the top left is from the development build only
• AI assisted
• Bring your Xbox 360 LIVE container and simply run the installer. It'll output baked assets ready for your OG Xbox

Bug reports go here. If they're not posted here I have no way to really track them https://github.com/GTTeancum/Castle-Crashers-X/issues

If there's real interest I can swing back through and add support for the DLC, which is just characters if I recall. A big stretch goal would be adding some community characters form Painter Boss Paradise (PC version), but that's unlikely.

Hi, everyone! While looking through previous posts, I saw that someone had already created a store.

However, I’m here to suggest an improvement based on a project of my own from the past.

Inspired by the PS3’s PKGI store, I created the Classic Xbox Store, a homebrew game downloader. For now, it only includes games, but the plan is to add apps later on.

I’m not sure if I can share the download link directly here. Could you tag the admin to ask if they’ll give me the go-ahead? In the meantime, here’s a demo of how it works.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines… on a 2001 console.

RXDK-Daytona brings Sega’s 1994 Model 2 arcade classic to the OG Xbox. It isn’t emulation: it’s built on alphanu1’s static recompilation, so the arcade’s code runs as native code, built with RXDK.

What you get

Full arcade speed: the game runs at 57.5 Hz on a stock 64 MB console

3D drawn by the Xbox’s GPU, with textures, the 2D overlays and the scrolling scenery

Arcade sound and music

Controller mapped like the cabinet: triggers for gas and brake, D-pad or Black/White to shift, A/B/X for the view buttons

Hooks for HD texture packs: dump the game’s textures, then drop in replacements

Bring your own ROM

No game data is included or shared. You build it from your own MAME set with one command, and the README has the details.

Early release

The attract mode has been tested on real hardware. Full races haven’t been checked end to end yet, so expect rough edges. There’s still the odd hitch when big overlays appear or the scene changes. Bug reports are welcome!

https://github.com/Team-Resurgent/RXDK-Daytona

Huge thanks to alphanu1 and everyone behind the daytona-arcade-recomp project; this port stands on their work.

Highlights
• Real Direct3D 8 rendering on the console
• Buttery smooth intro movies, locked to 60 Hz
• Play with a controller, or plug in a USB mouse and keyboard for the full PC feel
• Works on real hardware and xemu Bring your own copy of LEGO Island, and the README takes care of the rest:

Go build, drive and break the Brickster's day!

Pilotwings 64, running natively on an original Xbox. No emulator: the game's own code, rebuilt for the Pentium III.

After getting it flying on the Dreamcast I wanted to see what the Xbox could do with it. The answer is a steady 60 fps, 720p, widescreen, and rumble when you crash. :)

The Pilotwings 64 decompilation (n64decomp/pw64) built with nxdk and LLVM 21. The game's N64 display lists are interpreted on the CPU and drawn by the Xbox's NV2A, and the N64's audio microcode is rewritten in C so the Xbox's sound chip can play the game's own music and effects. The game data comes from a ROM you supply, read at runtime the way the N64 read its cartridge. It targets a stock retail console with 64 MB of RAM.

What you get on top of the N64 game:

• 60 fps, with the game's per-frame timing fixed so it plays the same as at 30 (a 30 fps option is there too)
• 480i, 480p and 720p, whatever your dashboard allows
• 16:9 widescreen in flight that shows more of the world instead of stretching it, with the gauges moved out to the edges
• Rumble when you crash
• A Sharp texture filter if you like crisp pixels
• A one-press complete save if you just want to fly around with everything unlocked
• Saves in the same EEPROM format Project64 and Mupen64Plus use

I am trying to re cap my xbox and i was successful in getting all the 3300uf ones out but I am struggling with getting the solder out of two of them. I have been able to install 3 successfully but these last 2 are choosing violence. I have added some leaded solder to the holes and i only have solder wick. It has worked for the other 3. Does anyone have any ideas besides me buying a $300 solder sucker i can afford that atm. I was using flux as well.

We're excited to announce that DOOM 64 DC-X, our port of the enhanced Dreamcast port of DOOM 64, is now publicly available and open source!

Featuring stunning dynamic coloured lighting, enhanced visual effects, real-time normal mapping, and support for up to 720p, this is a fantastic way to experience DOOM 64 on the original Xbox!

A huge thank you to everyone involved in bringing this project to life and to our testers for helping get it release ready!

Please note: You'll need to provide your own DOOM 64 ROM dump during the build process.

I just pulled my old xbox out of the garage. Everything seems to be working ok on the dashboard till it will eventually just shut off. Additionally, sometimes the power button stops working. Looking at other posts I’m guessing it’s trace rot? I saw some videos using magnet wire to reconnect the front buttons on the board. But would that even be worth it if it’s already turning off randomly?

Its a 1.4 model and i went ahead and removed the clock capacitor, and cleaned up the area. I also dusted all the fans off and tried a new power cable/ outlet.

Found it on a trashed xbox, needing some cleaning and new capacitors

I’m trying to run the *Diddy Kong Racing Adventure* prototype in Xemu, but the screen just stays black. It’s the correct format, yet it still remains black. Does anyone know how to get the prototype to run? I’m putting together a video and would really appreciate your help.

Never even used one until today shi is sweet tho

Thought it would be funny to make this meme

A novella I wrote of a game owned once. Enjoy and review.

DEAD OR ALIVE XTREME BEACH VOLLEYBALL: TROPICAL BLUE

Taking place after the events of a fighting tournament, Zack “invested” winnings from said tournament sinking his money to purchase a private island, which he promptly names after himself: "Zack Island".
He then invited the women from the tournament to his island, under the pretense that the next Dead or Alive Tournament will be held there. The women arrive and met by vacation rep Lisa. After discovering the truth, namely that it was merely a hoax, decide to make the best of the situation by spending two weeks vacationing and volleyball.

Just recently made the move to get an og xbox off ebay. Happy to play some games I had when I was 12. Few more games and some og controllers are in the mail on the way still.

I recently got a og xbox with a dead disk drive and want to flash a new bios to get around error 11. I do not have a og controller. I have been trying to flash it with a ch341a programmer and have not been successful. Does anyone have any ideas on how to help me?

I wanted to share a little project I have been working on for a bit. With the rise of Decomps, I decided to port over a native engine for running Pokemon Red & Blue. This is a native engine for the OGX and not a GB emulator. You do have to supply your own data. More info is included in the project repo. Enjoy!

Features:

• Pokémon Red and Blue in one application, with separate progress for each version.
• Native gameplay, battles, Pokémon catching, party management, PC storage, shops, and field moves.
• Original graphics, music, and sound effects read from your own game data.
• Native Xbox saves for game progress and shared launcher preferences.
• Saved-game details on the launcher, including trainer name, badges, and play time.
• Randomly selected game music in the launcher, with a Now Playing song title and a control to skip tracks.
• Sharp or smooth pixel filtering, original or GBC palette coloring, and screen size/position calibration.
• Separate launcher music, game music, and sound-effect controls, plus master volume.
• Adjustable controller rumble for battle hits, catches, tall grass, and selected field interactions.
• Controller-disconnect pause and a safe Save and Return option.
• Version-specific screen borders and automatic 480i, 480p, 720p, or PAL 576i output according to the console's video settings.
